- Tackaberry
- In 1937 the Canadian Cycle and Motor Company Limited (CCM)
acquired the Tackaberry name following the death of boot designer
George Tackaberry. CCM continuously refined the hockey boot and made the name 'Tackaberry'
world famous.
- Tackaberry, George Edwin (1872-1937)
- Born in Dresden, Ontario, Canada. He married, and moved to Brandon,
Manitoba in 1900. He was a shoemaker, and specialized in making orthopaedic
shoes for handicapped people, among other things. He lived next door to
Joe Hall, a professional hockey player and listened to
Hall's complaints about his hockey boots. Hall asked Tackaberry if he could
make him a pair of hockey boots that would last the season without collapsing.
Tackaberry made him a pair, using kangaroo leather and with a reinforced toe -
that was in 1905. The following year Hall was back with orders from other team
members and the business took off. The style of boot became known as the Tackaberry.
None of Tackaberry's seven sons wanted to take over the business, so after
Tackaberry died, on the 19th November 1937, his wife sold the patent to CCM.
She collected a small royalty on every pair made until her death in 1952.
Tackaberry made a pair of boots for each of his sons, and one of those pairs
is in the Hockey Hall of Fame. (Our thanks to his granddaughter Joan Beckley
for this detail).

Tampa, Florida, USA Joined the National
Hockey League in 1991. The Tampa Bay area was granted an NHL franchise in December of
1991, to play from the 1992-93 season at Expo Hall. Phil
Esposito was the franchise's first General Manager, with his brother Tony Esposito as head of the scouting division. Drafting
from existing franchises, the Lightning were given little to chose from, but with their
first pick, took goaltender Wendell Young from the
Stanley Cup winning roster of the Pittsburg Penguins, making Young the first player in
franchise history. The team surprised all with the signing of the first female goaltender,
Manon Rheaume, to a tryout where she played a period in
an exhibition game, then was sent to their IHL farm team, the Atlanta Knights. The team moved to the Suncoast Dome in
1993-94, which was re-named Thunderdome, and stayed there until 1995-96, moving to the Ice
Palace in 1996-97. The Lightning missed the playoffs the first three years of their
existence but surprised the powerhouse Flyers in their 4th season by taking a 2-1 games
lead in their opening round series before falling aside in six games.
